Indexing query results obtained from an LDAP directory
The widespread use of the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) to build searchable directory structures,
internally and across the web, gives you opportunities to add value to the sites that you create. You can index contact
information or other data from an LDAP-accessible server and let users search it.
